[17:04] <tmus> is there a place where I can get an overview of ubuntu kernel modifications in an easy way? I've cloned the zesty kernel git repo, but I can't seem to find patches or list of changes anywhere...
[17:11] <ivan> look at the SAUCE commits to get a list of recent Ubuntu fixes? look for a "Linux X.Y.Z" commit and diff some upstream tag to an Ubuntu tag?
[17:13] <ivan> are you looking for something in particular?
[17:14] <tmus> ivan, there's an ongoing bug about some CPU lockup that appears to only happen on Ubuntu kernels (not mainline), so I thought I'd see if I coule make any sense of it
[17:14] <ivan> tmus: try applying ubuntu's kernel configuration to mainline and see if it locks up then?
[17:15] <tmus> ivan, so mainline does not use the same config as the ubuntu kernel?
[17:15] <ivan> nope
[17:16] <tmus> can I find the mainline config for amd64 somewhere without installing? i think i know what causes the difference then
[17:16] <tmus> have a good idea anyway
[17:16] <ivan> a combination of debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu and debian.master/config/amd64/*
[17:18] <tmus> ivan, awesome - that's the resulting ubuntu config, right? Is there a way to find the mainline config?
[17:20] <ivan> yes and sure but I forget where
[17:20] <ivan> find . | grep -i config
[17:25] <tmus> hmmm... no luck - lots of *config files, but haven't found one that looked right
[17:53] <ivan> tmus: "You can get a full set of these and call it "100% pure vanilla" if you generate a config using a kernel from kernel.org and run make config or make menuconfig (without making any changes)." https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/17534/is-there-a-vanilla-kernel-configuration
[17:54] <ivan> but as mentioned that might not result in a config you want
[17:54] <ivan> maybe use the config from your existing mainline kernel that works for you?
[18:01] <tmus> ivan, right - i'll have the people with the mainline kernel install check that
[18:01] <tmus> thanks a lot
